Abstract

A method of making a spheroid is provided that includes the step of providing a suspension having one or more biologically-relevant materials dispersed within a biocompatible medium. An amount of a hydrophilic material is deposited on a defined area of a super-hydrophobic surface, and a droplet of the suspension is bioprinted onto the hydrophilic material positioned on the super-hydrophobic to thereby create the spheroid.
